The Moon Under Water: A Pubcast with Kelly Daniels and Steve JonesWinner of the Nobel Prize in Creepiness: Alice MunroAlice Munro is one of the greatest short story writers in the English language, ever. Daniels loved her work. Recommended it. Taught it. He wasn't alone. For her entire career, Munro was literary royalty. Now that she's dead, we learn that she, like basically all of her characters, was a really messed up human being. Specifically, when she learned that her husband was sexually assaulting Munro's young daughter, Munro took the dude's side, despite irrefutable evidence. Who would have thought that a writer famous for twisted, selfish, and unsettling characters would turn out to be a twisted, selfish, and...

The DailyThe Sunday Read: ‘What Alice Munro Knew’“My life has gone rosy, again,” Alice Munro told a friend in a buoyant letter of March 1975. For Munro, who was then emerging as one of her generation’s leading writers, the previous few years had been blighted by heartbreak and upheaval: a painful separation from her husband of two decades; a retreat from British Columbia back to her native Ontario; a series of brief but bruising love affairs, in which, it seems, Munro could never quite make out the writing on the wall. “This time it’s real,” she wrote, speaking of a new romantic partner, Gerald Fremlin, the emphasis...

It’s easy to frame Munro choosing her abusive husband over her innocent child as uniquely evil but it’s not. It is astoundingly rare for a family to rally around a survivor of sexual violence, period.

Human Voices Wake UsAdvice from Charles Dickens & Alice MunroAn episode from 1/10/23: Tonight we hear from two great writers of fiction, Charles Dickens and Alice Munro.
Through a handful of readings from Claire Tomalin’s Charles Dickens: A Life, we see how Dickens (1812-1870) was able to juggle, for almost a year, the writing of two novels simultaneously, both for serial publication. Thanks to a letter written by Fyodor Dostoevsky, who visited Dickens in London in 1862, we also hear Dickens speaking privately in a way that he rarely did publicly, admitting that his villains were better reflections of himself than his more lovable and generous characters. We...

Book FightEp 365: Early Alice Munro (Winter of Wayback, 1968)This week, we're continuing our Winter of Wayback trip to 1968 by reading a story, "Boys and Girls," from Alice Munro's first story collection. We revisit arguments about Munro's stories from our grad school years, and consider the unique structure of her stories, which often rely less on plot trajectory than on a kind of synthesis, looking at a character's life from a variety of angles. Plus: a new game, Munro or No! You can read the story here: http://www.giuliotortello.it/shortstories/boys_and_girls.pdf If you like the show, you can subscribe...
